The stickers on the pumps a testament to the power of misinformation and
the appalling lack of basic information literacy skills among the media (or
maybe they just don't care).
By the way, did you here about the guy who won a $40 million jury award
against the people he was robbing because he slipped on their front steps?
And then there is this dying kid who's last wish is to receive a postcard
from every town in the United States...

Subject: Re: HIT: Cell phone is a HOAX
Ok, I read these sites you guys mentioned by the cell phone hoax. If this
is a hoax why is it when you go to pump gas there is a warning about using
your cell phone while fueling. At first I did not belive it but the other
day I was at the gas station when my daughter called me on the cell phone
and she asked me where I was and I said about to gas. She got so upset and
told me to call her back after I pump the gas and she said look at the pump
to see if there is a warning and sure enough there was. I never noticed
before. If it is a hoax or not I am not talking on the cell phone while
pumping gas, it will make my daughter very happy. Have a good night. Robyn
